PDA connection problems / app wont run

Postby northern_munki on Tue Feb 15, 2005 4:49 pm

Hi, I'm having trouble getting my PDA to connect. I have the latest versions of XL and .net installed. Also .net on my PDA. Im currectly trying to connect via ActiveSync in the cradle as a test to see if i should buy wifi adaptor.

I have enabled the server and specifying the IP addres in the text fil on the PDA. When I double click the XLOBBY2SD.exe the busy icon pops up for a second or so then stops. Nothing more happens.

Please help! Cheers

I was just about to write a reply that u cant use xlobby client through activesync but thought i would try it - what do u know , it works.

1 - My servers.txt file looks like this:

server:192.168.0.53
screen:ppcmenu
resolution:auto
bindbuttons:true
navigationpad:true
quality:100%
mimic:true
refresh:1000

2 - On the server u did enable the server on the xnet tab?? IE launch xlobby and hit F2 then click the xnet tab and make sure your ip address is correct then click start server.

Later
Simon.

thats the problem.....the file was in the wrong format. Looks like the readme.txt may need edditing.

Cheers, work over IR but very slow!
